Don't Be A People Pleaser
Jesus didn't say "ALWAYS forgive, endlessly." In this scripture, all He's saying is, don't be too quick to walk away. Give them plenty of opportunity to repent and change their ways. But there is a limit. It's not a set limit either. I don't know about you, but I leave it all up to God. He knows everyone better than we know ourselves and He lets me know when it's time to bow out gracefully and leave them to it. Sometimes it's less than... Read more

All The World's A Stage
Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. 2 Peter...

It's OK To Be Different
But the natural (instinctual) man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. 1 Corinthians 2:14 It's a sad fact, that when you experience the true presence of God, in absolute, supernatural power and glory, it sets you apart from others and it's not because it makes you any more special or important, but because it changes the way you...

Love Is The Lifeblood Of Our Soul
1 Thessalonians 5:26 says: Greet all the brethren with a holy kiss. A HOLY kiss. What is a holy kiss?

Finding True Love
Now we're getting to the crux of it, the rarest of pearls, the most tenderest meat, if you have the humility and heart to receive it, and are able to digest it, that is. In eternity, it's all about the nature of things, because all spirits are natures and all natures have certain characteristics, that define and form the character of that nature. The instinctual nature of man or what people call "human nature", is the nature of "the... Read more

True Love Is Absolute
"We must through many tribulations enter the kingdom of God." Acts 14:22 Thirty four years ago, while sitting in the church for Easter service, which happened to be my 21st birthday, I heard the audible voice of God, like rolling thunder. Then shortly after, He told me to get rid of everything I had, except for a change of clothes and my Bible, and head north. I travelled around Australia for a number of years and God took me through... Read more

Love Is The Only Way
Did you, along with 2 billion other viewers, watch the royal wedding of Harry and Meghan, and listen to the sermon of Bishop Michael Curry? Like he said, "Love is the very fire and energy of real life!" The cold-hearted, can only say negative things about it, because they're ruled by their instinctual nature and its characteristic pride, vanity, envy, lust, selfish ambition, desire for creature comforts and fear for survival, that...
